Microtektites in Deep-Sea Sediments of the Southern Tasman Sea: the Environmental Effect Recorded in the Extraterrestrial Impact Event
详细信息   
摘要
In this paper,the influences of the impact event on marine and land vegetations through the analyses of microtektite abundance, different biomarkers, foraminiferal δ 18 O and δ 13 C, and Sea Surface Temperature (SST) records from the interval of 16~15 m (mbsf) in depth at ODP Site 1170 B (47°9.0344’S, 146°2.9846’W; water depth of 2 705 m) of the Southern Tasman Sea are studied. The results show that: 1) the peak of microtektites abundance occurs at the depth of 15.55~15.45 m, and these microtektites were caused by the Australian Meteorite Impact Event (AMIE); 2) the AMIE resulted in the decrease of SST by about 1.7 ℃, and decrease of the ratio of coccolith/diatom from about 6.0 to about 2.6 from the depth of 15.58 m to 15.50 m, and decrease of the content of C15~19 and C21~25 by around 50 %; and 3) the influences of AMIE on the terrestrial vegetation structure and terrestrial organic matter input could be limited.
